11 Tree Risk Inspection And Use Of Specialized Diagnostic2
1) Visual inspections are sufficient for most tree defects but some defects require specialized diagnostic tools to detect.
2) Specialized diagnostic tools include devices that detect decay through sound, resistance, or electrical conductivity measurements. These tools can detect decay location and severity but have limitations.
3) The choice of inspection method depends on the tree and goal of the inspection, with experienced visual inspection sometimes being as effective as specialized tools with less invasiveness.
Impression techniques
This document discusses impression techniques and materials for dental implants. It notes that closed tray impressions may be less accurate for multi-unit cases, while open tray impressions may be more accurate but require custom trays due to angulations. Polyvinyl siloxane is recommended as it is very stable in multiple viscosities, while polyether and rubber-base materials are more toxic to bone. The document also discusses managing patient issues during impressions and what information to provide to the dental lab, such as implant level and abutment level impressions and necessary components.

This document describes an alternative conservative approach to managing extensive tooth surface loss using direct composite restorations rather than traditional indirect restorations like crowns or onlays. The case study involved building up worn teeth on the right side and anterior teeth directly with composite, while allowing teeth on the un-worn left side to supra-erupt over time to make contact. This approach is described as being more conservative, economical, and less stressful than indirect restorations, though it requires more clinical skills and time and restorations may not last as long.
Dr. Bhagyshri Kulkarni
A patient reported to the clinic with discolored fillings and a gummy smile. Their treatment plan involved root canals, crown lengthening, and all-ceramic crowns to correct the issues and improve their smile esthetics. All-ceramic restorations were chosen as they are highly esthetic and durable while requiring minimally invasive preparation. The treatment was successful in providing the patient with a beautiful new smile.
Dr. Sneha Rajguru
Socket preservation is a procedure to preserve the alveolar ridge after tooth extraction by placing graft material in the extraction socket. The Bio-Col technique and socket seal surgery are two approaches that involve placing graft material and membranes in the socket to promote bone and soft tissue healing. These techniques aim to minimize ridge resorption and collapse of soft tissues after extraction. Case studies demonstrate that both techniques can successfully preserve the alveolar ridge contours and thickness for later implant placement or prosthetic restoration.

Implant abutments have evolved from titanium to zirconia to hybrid abutments made of lithium disilicate to improve esthetics while maintaining strength. Hybrid abutments and crowns combine a titanium base with a lithium disilicate crown, indicated for anterior and posterior single-tooth restorations. The lab procedure involves making a gingival mask, modeling the emergence profile, wax pattern, investing, pressing, finishing, and cementing the hybrid abutment crown. Case studies demonstrate the esthetic results and convenience of hybrid abutment crowns for gingival recession cases. Innovations in dental materials now allow achieving esthetics with implant restorations.
Dr. Prasad Mhaske
A 33-year-old female patient reported with a discolored left maxillary central incisor due to trauma 17 years prior. Radiographs showed complete obliteration of the root canal. Rather than endodontic treatment, a lithium disilicate crown was used to restore esthetics. The tooth was prepared and an impression was taken before creating a temporary crown. The final lithium disilicate crown provided a natural appearance and solved the patient's esthetic concerns in a minimally invasive manner.
Dr. Ganesh Mengal
The document discusses restoring teeth with insufficient coronal structure after root canals. Post and core treatment replaces missing tooth structure to provide retention and resistance for crowns, restoring function and esthetics. A case study describes a patient who received post and core treatment and metal-ceramic crowns on teeth 14 and 15 that had undergone root canals and lost coronal structure. The treatment was successful in restoring the compromised teeth.
Dr. Pranav Gupta
This document discusses a study that evaluated the display of maxillary anterior papilla, an important factor in determining esthetics, in a North Indian subpopulation. The study classified smile lines and interdental papilla display and found that 71.4% of people showed high interdental smile lines and 89.8% showed interdental papilla display when smiling. This highlights the importance of preserving interdental papillae during restorative dental treatments.
Dr. Saili Chandavarkar
The document discusses the shortened dental arch concept. It describes shortened dental arches as having an intact anterior region and a reduced number of posterior teeth to provide a stable and functional dentition.

The document discusses various cosmetic dental procedures for beautifying smiles including root coverage techniques like subepithelial connective tissue grafts, gingival depigmentation methods like electrosurgery and cryosurgery, crown lengthening used as an adjunct to restorative procedures, and gingival veneers as an interim measure. It emphasizes that close attention to diagnosis and surgical steps is important to maximize predictability and optimize esthetic outcomes for patients undergoing these soft tissue procedures.
Dr. Gagandeep Kaur
The document discusses how Botox injections can be used in dentistry to enhance smiles. Botox works by binding to nerve endings and preventing the release of acetylcholine, inhibiting muscle contraction. It can reduce gummy smiles by weakening lip muscles, treat teeth grinding and jaw joint issues by relaxing masseter muscles, and smooth wrinkles around the mouth. While effective in the short term, results vary between sides of the face if doses are uneven. The conclusion states that combining Botox with dental treatments allows enhancing both function and aesthetics of the teeth and face.

- The periodontium and dental pulp are intimately related. Lesions can originate from infections in either tissue.
- Periodontal-endodontic lesions present a challenge to clinicians due to their complexity. An interdisciplinary approach between periodontists and endodontists is required.
- Infections can spread between the tissues through direct pathways like apical foramen or indirect pathways like root fractures. Accurate diagnosis of the primary lesion and appropriate treatment is needed.
Dr. Abhijit Vajramushti
This case presentation describes the multidisciplinary treatment of a patient who presented with anterior dental issues including old root canal treatments, caries, and misaligned teeth. The treatment involved repeat root canals, buildups, crown lengthening surgery to modify the gingival profile, new temporaries, final preparations, and delivery of zirconia crowns from teeth 13 to 23 to achieve an aesthetic rehabilitation. A multidisciplinary approach including endodontics, prosthodontics, and periodontics was used to address the dental issues.
Dr. Anil Vaidyan
A 12-year-old girl was missing her upper right lateral incisor. There was not enough space for a prosthesis due to the impacted position of the lateral incisor. The document describes the orthodontic extrusion procedure to bring the impacted tooth into the dental arch, including surgical exposure of the tooth, bonding a button, and using ligature wire and an auxillary spring to apply force and move the tooth into position over time. The conclusion states that orthodontic extrusion is the best solution for replacing a missing tooth when it is impacted.
Dr. Anagha Aphale
In the current unstable global economy, dentists must choose cost-effective treatment plans to meet patients' demands. A patient with bone loss in the lower jaw needed new dentures. The dentist used existing teeth and Ceka ball attachments to create a lower denture that was stable and affordable. The precision attachments allowed the natural teeth to stabilize the denture, providing a predictable solution similar to implant-retained dentures at a lower cost.

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.TEST BANK For Community Health Nursing A Canadian Perspective, 5th Edition by...
